Phar Lap Rcwy Race 6 - Night'n Day Park Timaru (Jun Drivers) Mbl Pace

TOKYO ROSE (8) was good when runner-up two back at Ashburton then came from a similar draw to this and finished fourth last start at Motukarara. Tactics will be crucial from the draw but this looks winnable with even luck. Strong claims. KATHERINE (9) was let down by manners last start but was racing well before that with a string of top-two finishes including a win at Ashburton. Worth another chance. GATECRASHER (5) has been producing some good efforts including a second two back at Geraldine. He is on the radar. QUINN (7) must be respected off a last-start win at Rangiora.
